Abstract

A new unsymmetrical ligand (E)-2-methoxy-4-((1-phenylethylimino)methyl)phenol C16N17NO2 (I), was synthetized by one-step condensation reaction. The structure of this new compound was confirmed by elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV-Visible and 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy techniques. The compound (I) crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121 with the following unit cell parameters a = 11.7570 (6) Å, b = 10.0711 (6) Å, c = 23.4478(13) Å, V = 2776.4(3) Å3, Z = 4, R1 = 0.045 and wR2 = 0.125. The title compound crystallizes with two enanti­omers (A and B) in the asymmetric unit which are both in E-stereoisomers. In the crystal structure of the racemic compound, the most noticeable difference between these two mol­ecules is the dihedral angle values between the phenyl rings: 61.61 (1)° and 60.96(1)°.
